Sowing/Planting and Flowering/Harvesting Guide

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS: Sow indoors, January-March, 0.5cm (¼”) deep, in pots or trays of seed compost, in an unheated frame or greenhouse. Keep moist. Germination may be erratic, so prick out seedlings as they develop into individual pots. Further germination may be prompted, by covering with plastic and leaving outside to chill for 2-3 weeks, after which they should be brought into a warm greenhouse at approx. 15°C (60°F). Pot on individually, harden off from May onwards and transplant to flowering position, spacing 40cm (16”) apart, in late autumn. Flowers: June to August.
